POXvirusproteiineissa on paljon ankyriini(ANK) toistojaksoja omaavia proteiineja, joilla on virulenssille merkitystä

 https://www.pnas.org/doi/full/10.1073/pnas.0802042105

ANK proteins constitute the largest family of poxviral proteins but their function and the significance of their abundance have remained an enigma. We propose that poxviruses use these unique ANK/F-box proteins to dictate target specificity to SCF1 ubiquitin ligases and thereby exploit the cell's ubiquitin-proteasome machinery.
